Abstract: Method and device for controlling a machine which is intended to be operated in several different operating states, the machine being intended to utilize different types of equipment in at least two of these operating states for different activities. The device includes a means (1) which is intended to be actuated and which can be set in a number of different positions (2-6), and each of these positions corresponds to one of the operating states.

Abstract: A method and arrangement for controlling a function of a work implement utilizing a device including a source of pressurized fluid (1), a circuit of pressurized fluid (2) for driving the work implement, an electronically controlled hydraulic valve (5) being arranged in the circuit of pressurized fluid (2) for controlling the function of the work implement, a control unit (4) for controlling the hydraulic valve (5) based upon a signal from a control member (3) for transmitting a control command to the control unit (4), wherein the control unit (4) is arranged for controlling the hydraulic valve (5) in accordance with a smooth mode function or an abrupt mode function. The opening time for opening the hydraulic valve (5) to a predetermined opening degree is changed when switching from one operating mode function to the other operating mode function.

Abstract: In method and a device for controlling a vehicle, the vehicle includes an engine arranged to drive at least one pair of half shafts and to drive at least one pump. The pump is arranged to supply a hydraulic system including at least a first hydraulic component with hydraulic oil. According to the method, the power consumed by the hydraulic system is determined. In addition, the determined consumed power is compared with a reference value, and if the detected consumed power exceeds the reference value, the maximum available power for the hydraulic system is limited. The power limitation is carried out by the maximum available movement of at least a first flow-regulating valve in the hydraulic system being limited.
